PrimeStore molecular transport medium

The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic highlighted the limitations of modern molecular diagnostics testing, with safe sample collection being a major obstacle to address. Almost immediately after collection, the important nucleic acids in clinical specimens begin to degrade as they are exposed to nucleases and changes in temperature and pH. This can be an issue when these nucleic acids are used to make a diagnosis. Explore PrimeStore^® MTM (molecular transport media) from Streck, a transport medium which is designed to rapidly inactivate viruses, bacteria, and veterinary pathogens at point-of-collection and stabilize DNA and RNA during storage and shipping.
